We had taken the kayaks down toward Fourchu and parked in the field at Fullers bridge. Here the clamming marshes stretched out in this lovely view of the salt grasses, the spruce and the channels winding toward the ocean. A perfect day of solemn beauty, the background sound of crows and sea birds above the distant low voice of the mild surf breaking on the Framboise Cove barrier bar gave the feeling of being alone in the world. We followed this particular channel down to the bar but did not find the gut leading to the ocean. Looking at the map later it seemed we should have paddled upriver then crossed to the other side of the marsh and headed downstream on that side but we enjoyed our small adventure and the journeys into the back waters of the lakes toward Framboise.
Lovely picture! I found your site while looking for directions to fullers bridge(fishing purposes). I'll have to take a spin up this way sometime soon. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteBassman, Arichat. (and no, that bass is the instrument, not the fish actually)
sorry I am so late responding to your comment but I am in a no wi-fi location here in Cape Breton for some while now and go round to a friends house to do a few updates - thanks for the comment and hope you do well fishing there when you go
ReplyDeleteMy great great grandfather's house and barn was next to Fuller's Bridge...with an out house built over the water!
